Breaking Down the Replacement Brake Wire Grommet for Dexter Electric Brake Assemblies Video

EZ Lube axles like the item #T3584F-EZ-8974 come from the factory with just a little bit of grease in the bearings. The first time you use the EZ Lube feature to fill the axle, it will take a lot of grease. You will probably use 3/4 to a full tube…

As long as there is still a bit of wire still attached to the brake magnet on your #AKEBRK-35-SA, you can use a butt connector like the Deka Heat Shrink Butt Connector #DW05745-5 to connect a jumper wire from the sheared off end to the brake wire on…

As you may have already found, 5200 lb, 6000 lb and 7000 lb axles can all use the same components including inner/outer bearings, hubs and brakes. Here are some other things they share in common: Dexter 5200 lb Regular Duty Axle - 0.180 inch tube…

The two wires coming from your brake assemblies on your hub are for the brake magnet. One wire is ground and one wire is for power from the brake controller. It doesn't matter which wire goes to what in this situation. Take a look at the video at…

Yes, 14 gauge wire seems too small. I would go with 10 or 12 gauge. For 10 gauge you can use #10-1-1 and for 12 gauge use #12-1-1. These wires are sold in increments of 1 foot. So if you needed 20 feet of wire you would enter 20 in the quantity box.…

The two sizes you mentioned are pretty similar and fit many of the same 15 inch wheels. The 205/75-15 fits rim widths of 5 inch to 6-1/2 inch whereas the 225/75-15 fits widths that are 5 inch to 6 inch. The 205 is 27.1 inches tall and the 225 is 28.4…

The right and left orientation is determined if you are standing behind the trailer looking towards the tow vehicle. The left side is the drivers side and the right side is the passengers side. Tthe shorter brake pad will always be in the front of…

Dexter Right Hand Trailer Brake Actuating Arm #BP02-180 replaces this item on right brake assembly #23-27. The correct magnet for both the left and right brake of this type is indeed the part you referenced, #BP01-110. When wiring in the new magnet…

It can be a challenge some times to determine the correct replacement parts for a given trailer or brake assembly. I did some checking and brake magnet #BP01-110 is correct for Hayes/AL-KO 10 x 2-1/4 inch brakes. To be honest I am not certain what…

The Tru Ryde grease seals you mentioned, part #RG06-70 are indeed a replacement for the 10-036-00 Dexter seals. They would work great for your application.

The diameter of the Replacement Brake Wire Grommet #046-016-00 is 3/8" with a length of 7/16". I have attached a video that goes over these measurements at the 25 second mark of the video.

90-120 ft lbs of torque is probably about right for your 15 inch trailer rims. If you check out the lug nut torque chart that I attached you will see that nearly all of the torque specs are that and higher. You'll need to know the diameter of the…
